VisitAncient Skull in China May Belong to 'Dragon Man' Lineage, Named 'Yunxian Man'
May 21, 2024, 09:04 PM
A mysterious skull found in China may belong to a lineage known as 'Dragon Man.' The skull, estimated to be between 900,000 to 1 million years old, has been named 'Yunxian Man.' It combines human facial bones with a flattened cranium and thicker brow bone, suggesting it may be a hybrid of Homo sapiens and a long-lost species. This discovery provides new insights into the evolutionary profiles and complex admixture landscape in East Asia. 3D modeling has been used to analyze the skull's features.
